About About the place

The Shells Museum Malakoloski Muzej is a modest museum housed inside a Franciscan monastery in Makarska, Croatia. It features a collection of shells gathered from various regions globally, as well as from the Adriatic Sea. The museum consists of two main rooms and a connecting hallway, displaying a wide variety of shell species. It is known for its intimate setting and the personal touch provided by the staff, often a local resident connected to the monastery. While small in size, the museum offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of malacology and the natural beauty of marine life.

The place is so beautiful that I could not take my eyes off it. The place is a heritage building which has stunning architecture and the Victorian style walls are simply amazing. We visited the place on a weekday and it had a lot of people. But things were arranged in a proper way and we could have the tour nicely.

The [sight.name] is home to a huge collection of art pieces and painting, few of which are really renowned and popular. We got this amazing opportunity to visit this place, get to know the history associated with it and see everything. As an art student and lover, this place was a heaven for me.
